One of the staples of a good camp is a properly built firepit. During this outing my campfire needs will primarily include cooking and boiling. Join me in this episode where I get the fire pit made along with a nice pot hanger. These simple additions to the camp make outdoor life more enjoyable as well as a lot easier.

The tent stove is made by a company called Kni-Co and is the Trekker model. The outside dimensions of the fire box are 19"L x 10"H x 10"W. The inside dimensions of the fire box are roughly 17"L x 8"H x 8"W. It's a nice little stove and worked quite well for me on this trip. I primarily burned small diameter fuel (approx. 2"-3" diameter) cut to roughly 16" in length. This smaller fuel was nice since I didn't have to split any of it. When I properly loaded the stove and dampened it down I was able to consistently get 3-4 hour burns before the stove died down to the point where the tent started to get cold. Typically I only had to get up once throughout the night to add wood to the stove which allowed me to have a good sleep every night I was out. The combination of the canvas tent and wood stove worked excellent in these milder weather conditions. If I was camping in the winter (with temps well below zero) a larger wood stove would probably be more suitable. But for this type of camping I'm very happy with how well this little stove performed.

If you have any questions let me know. Thank you to everyone who watches. God bless and Happy trails!
